Both men have been trying
for several years to emigrate* to IsraeL but according to Miller they are
"almost in despair" at-the
delays they have encountered. Miller said he raised
their cases with academician Igor Lebedev. "who
appeared to be sympathetic."
Yakir, 50, is the son of Gen.
Maurice Yakir, a founder, of
the Soviet Air Force, who
was executed with his
brother, Army Gen. Ion
Yakir, in Stalin's bloody
purge of the Soviet military

academic post and has made

old son.
Yoffe. a 42-year-old
mathematician, was given a
more junior job after applying to emigrate four years
ago. Married, with two children,' their emigration
application comes up for review again in 1983.
According to Miller, both
men estimated that more
than one million Soviet Jews
would try to leave for Israel
if they were not frightened
about the consequences of
applying. Currently, some
300,000 people have been formally invited to join their
relatives in Israel and are
awaiting visas.

Attorney General Yitzhak
Zamir's recommendation
for "experimental excavations" to determine whether
ancient Jewish burial
grounds would be disturbed
by the controversial
archaeological digs at the City of David was promptly
welcomed by Education
Minister Zevulun Hammer.
But it was angrily denounced
by Ashkenazic Chief Rabbi
Shlomo Goren who accused
Zamir of "casuistry to
justify desecration of
graves." •
The Attorney .General's
legal opinion, made public
recently, held that the evidence presented so far by the
Chief Rabbinate to support
its halachic ruling that the
dig site is an old Jewish
cemetery "is not sufficient"
grounds to revoke the excavation license awarded
years ago to a Hebrew University archaeological team
by the government Department of Antiquities.
However, Zamir stated,
the rabbis do have a great
deal of material evidence
